We actually agree on much of this and the need for greater skepticism and scrutiny. Indeed, I don't know enough about ivermectin to comment on it. But I've also not seen the same kinds of trials for it as I've seen for some of the COVID vaccines. (I wouldn't for example trust the China COVID vaccine, because of problems in other countries with it, and there were problems in India with one of the vaccines. Pfizer makes viagra, so they must be legit, right? /s) In any event, I agree that none of this should be politicized. It's nuts. I base my opinion on the successes of the COVID vaccines (and other vaccines before them), though I do worry about the politicizaiton of drugs, and that the medical evidence should be shown with all of the arguments for or against vaccines.
